It’s Independence Day, which means fireworks will be going off all over town. And while the city-run displays will get the most attention, many others will have the urge to shoot off their own fireworks. State Fire Marshal Jerry Rosenthal talks about the dangers of using them and gives some tips on what people should do.

The Fourth of July theme continues as we delve into this country’s history. Ken Davis, author of the new book A Nation Rising, joins Jearlyn to discuss some of the brighter and more controversial (lesser-known) tidbits of our nation’s 200-plus years of existence.
